INT. – MICHAEL’S HOUSE – FIVE HOURS LATER

Kye and Jye are standing facing each other.

KYE

I still don’t understand how those two are so sweet and selfless.

Gabriel walks over.

GABRIEL

To me it is easier to care than to not care.

Kye and Jye turn to face Gabriel.

GABRIEL

An open heart is open to the good in the world. A closed hardened heart is closed to all the good. You need to let the good in. We can’t let pain make us stop caring.

Ty walks over.

TY

My heart is closed and hardened.

John James walks over.

JOHN JAMES

No it is not.

Kye, Jye, Gabriel, and Ty turn to face John James.

JOHN JAMES

Your heart is filled with pain but it is not closed or hardened. You care too much for your heart to be closed.

KYE

Ty and Gabriel are completely selfless.

JYE

Don’t even say you’re not.

Chris walks over.

CHRIS

Get back in bed.

Gabriel and Ty walk off.
